And then the responses....
what is your final price?
$200

I am a medical doctor residing in Santa rosa. i am buying this item as a birthday gift for my son that was currently transferred to West Africa with world health organization.I will pay through PayPal and you will be mailing the item to him directly through USPS Kindly provide me with your PayPal email or send me a money request so that I will make the payment to you asap, i will be adding a shipping fee of($100) during the payment of your item, once you get back to me with your PayPal email.i need this item as soon as possible so that it can be able to get to him before his birthday comes-up.i traveled to the United Kingdom(UK) for an emergency,that is why i can't do this locally/pick it up.hope it is in good condition.kindly get back to me asap so that i will make the payment. hoping to hear from you soon.

I think they always respond to CL posts with a normal question first just so they can get you to answer back to get your email address, then Spam you to death..thats why I hate posting stuff up on craigslist, but somethings You just need too

I say next time someone gets the whole 'I'll send you a million, you send half back' e-mail you should get the guy to send the fake check and then send another fake check for twice the original amount asking for money back also. See how long you can get that going.

From Me to brad ********:

If you aren't paying, then you have to keep the rocks. These are really nice rocks, though. I'm sure you will be able to find use for them. I have a pile of rocks in my backyard and it makes for a great conversation piece. If deer are a problem in your backyard, you can use these rocks to throw at them. They also make great paperweights. There are plenty of things to do with these rocks, so enjoy them.

Mike



LMFAOO!!!!!! HAHAHAHAHA
